The City Mission has served all ages in the greater Cleveland for over 100 years, and we are so grateful they're here! I love that they think about how to serve each group individually, treat everyone with dignity, and teach life skills that will help everyone "fish for a lifetime". Love, love, love The City Mission!
Since I have arrived here the staff has refused to adhere to my doctors orders of making me stop sleeping on the concrete so my pneumonia can heal up however staff is partial on what is enforced and there is no continuity in rule enforcement even if you have doctor's orders. At times staff laugh at the anguish of sick clients. In spite of having contagious pneumonia and another client having strep throat they seem to keep us all in close contact like they want all of us to get sick
I interned with The City Mission several years ago and have kept in touch ever since. They've always stood out in vision, fiscal responsibility, adaptation, and commitment to loving hurting populations as Christ commands. It's impressive that they take no government funding, and work toward holistic, lasting transformation in the lives of individuals. The staff is kind and caring, and their internship and volunteer programs are relevant and meaningful. Thank you, The City Mission, for all you do! Without The City Mission, my life would be very different, and I know that's the same for thousands of other individuals in Cleveland.
